Collecting Eels

[Schlomo]

Just wanted to bump this in case anyone missed my previous post.

[Schlomo]

Found a copy of ESB at some random bookstore.



At Tower Records, the double-package of Beautiful Freak and ESB. They had the other duo too -- DOTG and Souljacker, I think?



Japanese Hombre Lobo with obi strip. They had some others too, but I forget which. Actually, every Eels album was present, most of them Japanese, but some were imports.



And an awesome Tom Waits set I regret passing by (but really -- who needs CDs anymore anyway?).

[Pigalle]

Isn't that Tom Waits set the 5cd set that is readily available in Europe?

See:

Not living in Europe, I wouldn't know.

[Pigalle]

Given your apparent regrets on letting it go I was just drawing your attention to the fact that there are plenty more out there (and at a better price).

[Schlomo]

True about the price. Everything in Tokyo was ridiculously overpriced -- the food, the entertainment, the subway... But still not so bad.

I am not sure how rare (if at all) this is but after much looking I finally acquired this:

[e-man]

Oooh, that one is pretty rare! Thus far I only saw one copy of that and that was the one with 'The Only Thing I Care About' on it. This is THE one to have from the various The Cream Of Cuts compilations, as it features The Great Pretender. As far as I know the only actual cd-release with that song on it.

[Pigalle]

I've been searching for it on and off for the last couple of years. I finally thought I'd found it late last year only for the seller to then be unable to find it. Then a week or so ago I found it on amazon marketplace

Thats an amazing find, not even heard or seen that one that before. Definetly one for the wants list

[Pigalle]

I thought that last night I had found the Deep Cuts II CD. Sadly it was an old listing

Go this in the post today.




I need to start collecting again.

[DCF_Kieran]

Just ordered a few more items. 
Old hat to most of you guys though,  I'm sure.
